Quote

If you deny the reality of your body or your life, you'll never be able to dress any of it well - even the parts you love. You have to see it all to work with any of it.

We all put obstacles in our own path toward personal style, myself included. If we understood why we constructed these practical and emotional obstacles, we might move beyond it to healthier, happier perceptions of ourselves and, ideally, a better sense of self-esteem.
Stacy London
Image
Rules like 'don't wear white after Labor Day' or 'shoes matching the handbag' are antiquated. Modern women should feel free to experiment.
Stacy London
Image
Not one person I know isn't concerned with their appearance. To trivialize fashion is to rob ourselves of a great tool.
Stacy London
Image
Self-esteem doesn't come simply from dressing well, but they are both something we can control. It's a missed opportunity when women say they don't have the money, figure, etc., because style is such a way to help cultivate the way women feel about themselves.

I don't argue style on the basis of tastes. If you feel like you've reached your personal best, don't change.
Stacy London
Image
Style is all about your individual sense of how you want to present yourself to the world. It's about loving what you've got instead of wishing for what you're not.

Less is more. I truly believe in buying a few pieces with better construction.

Image
I believe every PERSON is beautiful. What you do with that beauty, how you develop it, is up to you.

Image
You have to look in the mirror and see that what you're wearing looks good on the body you have now. Wearing a larger size is just wearing a larger size.
Stacy London
Image
I'm not as snarky as I used to be.
Stacy London
Image
Fit is everything. I don't care what your body type is like: If you're not wearing clothes that fit you, you can't have style.
Stacy London
Image
You should feel beautiful and you should feel safe. What you surround yourself with should bring you peace of mind and peace of spirit.
Stacy London
Image
Texture is something we forget - it makes outfits look very expensive. You can do a monochromatic outfit, if you're afraid of things that are more colorful and printed, and still create interest.
Stacy London
Image
Style can change your look, certainly, but it can also change your life.
Stacy London
Image
There is something about a well-fitted modern jacket that feels like armor. If it's cut well, it adds a dose of cool to anything you wear it with and does the heavy lifting when it comes to creating a flattering shape.

Image
Matching your hat to your shoe to your bag, or your necklace to your earrings, has a tendency to look dated. Mixing up your accessories adds interest to an outfit, and can make you look much more modern and polished.
Stacy London
Image
Style offers concrete rules you can follow. You can use it as a resource rather than a barrier to feeling good about yourself.
Stacy London
Image
Don't let fear or insecurity stop you from trying new things. Believe in yourself. Do what you love. And most importantly, be kind to others, even if you don't like them.
Stacy London

Fashion is an industry to make money. It plays into human psychology. We want to belong, we want to be loved. I'm not trying to demonize the fashion industry - I love the fashion industry - but style is about taking the control out of the industry's hand and having you decide what works for you.

If you only have work clothes - the black trouser and ribbed turtleneck you got four years ago at the Gap - you're not participating in your own style personality.
